New to chickens

[HelenN]

New chicken owner here. Ordered 10 Golden Comet females from Tractor Supply via Hoover’s Hatchery. Lost 4 within 3 days. Remaining 6 seem to be thriving. Coop and run being built now. Have the girls secured in the barn’s tack room until it us ready. I love to see their little personalities showing. This has been a fun adventure so far.
